    BREAKING: CUMBIE IS A NO

    What about 20 years ago? My point is that Texas wasn't always the Texas of the Mack Brown era. College football comes in cycles and as fans we can't have a sense of entitlement.

    Step Away from the Ledge

    Haha! I'm just saying, we weren't always winning 10 games every year. Neither was Bama or OSU or any of the other schools. There are cycles in CFB and unfortunately we just seem to be at the bottom of it right now.

    Step Away from the Ledge

    I agree with GZ. I know people want us to be competitive and win games, but the reality is simple. If a team is better than you in key positions (such as OL/DL), its going to be awfully hard to overcome that. I agree that CS could have made some better decisions at times. I also think a lot of...

    *****Texas vs. Oklahoma State*****

    I hear you on this. I think it takes a bit of selling your soul (i.e. Baylor). With the hole we were in, it was ALWAYS going to be a 2-3 year turnaround. I do think CS left a few games on the field between last year and this year.

    My 2 Cents on South Bend

    That's exactly where I am right now. I'd rather lose making freshman mistakes with freshman, then seeing juniors and seniors continue to be severely ineffective. Inject some passion with these young kids. This may sound crazy, but I'm tired of losing the exact same way. The defense is on the...

    My 2 Cents on South Bend

    You are right. It may be too early to say he's inconsistent. It's great to know he can boot it that far.

    My 2 Cents on South Bend

    I just wanted to drop off my 2 cents on the game. I played quite a bit of ball back in the day as a running back (having played with Vince in middle and high school). I've been in the "patience" camp as it pertains to Charlie Strong turning Texas around. I know he was/is fighting an uphill...

    Burnt Ends (4-13)

    All of this is pure conjecture and not based on any facts. How do you know what the coaches are concerned about? Trust me when I say the coaches know their strengths and weaknesses better than anyone else. Sure, Watson as well as other coaches made mistakes last year. No doubt about it. My only...

    Burnt Ends (4-13)

    I'm not sure where you got that from, but from what ALL the other sites (including this one) is reporting is that the QB's are getting much better in the new scheme. We don't even have our incoming 2015 class on campus yet (who are filled with possible studs). I know you hate Watson, but there...

    Burnt Ends (4-13)

    Randolph, have a coke and a smile. You can hate Watson all you want, but with that offense line VY wouldn't have done much of anything. I don't care what your scheme is, if the line can't block air then you won't get very far. They weren't matched well with Arkansas. The SEC knew that and that's...

    Burnt Ends (4-13)

    JB, It was absolutely necessary to simplify the offense. This is especially true when it comes to Heard (via his high school coach). Last year we were handcuffed because there wasn't a true backup QB and you can't make big adjustments mid season and expect to get big results. Simplifying the...

    Rumph gone?

    He wasn't offered, he's only a candidate.

    2015 Recruiting Season is in full swing

    I guess they should've upped the security for admin passwords!

    2015 Recruiting Season is in full swing

    I hear you SHA. I don't think he was doubting his abilities. I believe it was more of his since of entitlement. Again, he may light the world on fire but Higs wasn't the only site posting some concerns if Heard was THE guy. He's not in high school so his state titles are moot. Gilbert had state...

    2015 Recruiting Season is in full swing

    NTG, No this one isn't about clicks. The question was brought up in a 24 hour chat so it wasn't anything publicized. Higdon made a couple comments on the question and stated he wouldn't say anything else. I know this is probably not what us fans want to hear, but it's an honest possibilities. OB...
